I remember having to write all of my programs to audio cassette and waiting for fifteen or twenty minutes for some of the larger ones to load.

It means I was a bad boy... But I don''t complain, because I''m a good boy now because it is cool to have a nice yellow "on probation" near your name

I was an utter failure with Basic on my C64, and not terribly successful with QBASIC years later. So I guess my first programming language is C++, and that would have been about 3 or so years ago.

The other is to believe, and to feel an excessive and unhealthy interest in them. They themselves are equally pleased by both errors and hail a materialist or a magician with the same delight."

BASIC, circa early 1990''s. I wrote sucky text adventures that sucked. I''m pleased to say that I''ve finally progressed to sucky Breakout clones in VBasic and DirectX.
